Facts
The claimant brought employment tribunal proceedings against Greencore Food To Go Limited. The tribunal issued an order on 21 November 2024 which the claimant failed to comply with. On 24 December 2024, the tribunal wrote to the claimant giving him until 2 January 2025 to make representations or request a hearing as to why the claim should not be struck out for non-compliance and failure to actively pursue the claim. The claimant failed to respond by the deadline.
Decision
Employment Judge McTigue struck out the claim on papers on 7 January 2025 because the claimant failed to comply with the tribunal's order, failed to actively pursue the claim, and failed to make any representations or request a hearing by the specified deadline. The hearing scheduled for 9 January 2025 was cancelled.
